Sites incontournables à Marina Bay

Editor's Choice

This collection explores Singapore's architectural evolution and historical milestones. It includes the futuristic Gardens by the Bay, home to massive biodomes and Supertrees, and the Tang-style Buddha Tooth Relic Temple in Chinatown. Historical sites feature the Battlebox, a former WWII command bunker in Fort Canning, and Chijmes, a repurposed Neo-Gothic convent. For local culture, Haji Lane in Kampong Glam provides a narrow corridor of vibrant murals and boutique storehouses. These landmarks represent the city’s transition from a colonial port and wartime stronghold to a modern, green metropolis.
